Hi, Im having a weird problem where by when i boot up the server, sometimes it will not detect all of my software raid1 drives and will therefore not boot up any DomUs as it cannot find the LVM volumes. I have Md0 /boot Md1 / Md2 swap Md3 LVM Only md1 is detected. I can then reboot and it will then find all 4 raid drives, then i could reboot again and it not find them all. Interesting this only happens when booting in this kernel, i can use 2.6.18.8 fine. Has anyone experience this issue or have any suggestions on a resolution? Thanks in advance Ian _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi, Well i have now upgraded to 2.6.32.13 and have statically compiled the HD drivers which now seems to have resolved the issue so im not sure if it was the kernel or the driver compiled as a module but it works. Having an issue on shutdown though, if i have any domains running the system will get so far, to closing the disks then will crash with a call trace. If i have no domUs running it will happily reboot. Any ideas to that cause? Thanks Ian -----Original Message----- From: Fajar A.
